CHAPTER 127
Children are an heritage from the Lord. |
||
|

1 Except the LORD build the house, they
alabour in vain that build it: except the LORD
bkeep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.
2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved asleep. |

3 Lo, achildren are an
bheritage of the
LORDa: and the fruit of the
womb is his creward.
4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. 5 aHappy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate. |
3a children are an heritage of the
LORD The true order of Heaven is the patriarchal order of families
with the presiding father joined together with his wife. The children who are
born into this world are the spirit children of God the Father of Spirits and
as such they are an all important part of God's eternal plan and the care and
welfare of these little ones has been entrusted unto earthly parents who God
will hold responsible for their well being and up keep. They are the jewels
of heaven, Gods in embryo. And as God's spirit children, we are but caretakers
of them, to bring them up in the way of the Lord else it will be laid to our
charge against us. In another sense, the kingdom of heaven is as a little child and all children who die, die unto the Lord and exaltation. Not being of the age of accountablitly, the Lord takes upon himself their faults and failings and 'inherits' them as his own, bring them to heaven and exaltation in and of himself. |
